Example:
Imagine trying to move a heavy piece of furniture across a carpeted room. Just like how you slowly push and slide the furniture inch by inch, a glacier moves in a similar manner across the land, but at a much larger scale. The glacier is like that piece of furniture; it’s a massive body of ice and snow that gradually shifts its position over time due to gravity, carving out landscapes beneath it just as the furniture might leave tracks or indentations in the carpet.
